Comet problem - HTTP method GET is not supported by this URL

[Andrew Winter]

I am trying to implement a Comet process.
Tomcat 6.0.36
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 (Santiago)
Java 7u11 (32 bit)

I have implemented CometProcessor.  I am using the NIO connector.
When I try the servlet I get: HTTP method GET is not supported by this URL
Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

Code snippet:

public class ConsolidatedActionCenterPush extends HttpServlet  implements
CometProcessor,CAC{

  private static MessageSender messageSender = null;
  private static final Integer TIMEOUT = 600 * 1000;





  @Override
  public void destroy() {
    messageSender.stop();
    messageSender = null;

  }

  @Override
  public void init() throws ServletException {
    messageSender = new MessageSender();
    messageSender.start();
    ConsolidatedActionCenterBase.setCAC(this);
    EventLog.append("ConsolidatedActionCenterPush: init" );
    //    queues = new HashMap<String, WorkQueue>();

  }





  @Override
  public void event(final CometEvent event) throws IOException,
ServletException {
    HttpServletRequest request = event.getHttpServletRequest();
    HttpServletResponse response = event.getHttpServletResponse();

 ........

}
